/**
 * Instances of this class are used to convert a model element to a JSON representation and vice versa. Each
 * instance typically only handles a specific type of element. Because elements have no common structure, they are
 * always accompanied by the widget that owns them (here represented by the corresponding {@link ModelAdapter}).
 *
 * How to add a new converter:
 * - Create a subclass of this abstract class and register it with {@link HybridActionContextElementConverters#register}.
 * - Specify the types of the generic parameters and implement the abstract methods {@link #_acceptAdapter}, {@link #_acceptJsonElement}
 *   and {@link #_acceptModelElement} accordingly. This is necessary because the type parameters only exist at compile-time.
 * - Implement the abstract methods {@link #_jsonToElement} and {@link #_elementToJson}. They are only called if the arguments were
 *   accepted by the corresponding methods. Otherwise, the task is delegated to the next converter.
